Economy - Saxony's skilled crafts sector calls on politicians to act
Saxony's skilled crafts sector is calling for long-term solutions to existing problems instead of small details. However, politicians at a federal level "still lack strength", criticized Jörg Dittrich, President of the Dresden Chamber of Skilled Crafts and the Saxon Skilled Crafts Association, in a statement for 2023 in Dresden. So far, it has not managed to get to grips with bureaucracy, help the construction sector back on its feet with economic stimulus measures and ensure the long-term security of supply of the energy grids. "There is a lack of investment in dual training and in the innovative strength of companies," continued Dittrich, who has also been head of the German Confederation of Skilled Crafts since 2023. "This must finally change in the coming year."
According to the announcement, 1351 tradespeople became self-employed in East Saxony this year, promoting innovation and efficiency as entrepreneurs, creating jobs and contributing to growth, value creation and prosperity. 343 people received their master craftsman's certificate and 1819 their journeyman's certificate and around 12,400 tradespeople underwent further training.

Jörg Dittrich, as the President of the Dresden Chamber of Skilled Crafts and the Saxon Skilled Crafts Association, has been vocal about the need for politicians at the federal level to address the challenges facing Saxony's skilled crafts sector, particularly in terms of bureaucracy, economic stimulus measures for the construction sector, and long-term energy grid security. The lack of investment in dual training and innovative strength among companies is another concern raised by Dittrich, who has also held the position of head of the German Confederation of Skilled Crafts since 2023.
In a positive development for the sector, 1351 tradespeople became self-employed in East Saxony this year, contributing to innovation, job creation, growth, value creation, and prosperity in the region. Additionally, 343 people received their master craftsman's certificate and 1819 their journeyman's certificate, while around 12,400 tradespeople underwent further training in the region.
The economic policy and development of the skilled crafts sector in Saxony have implications at both the regional and national level, as the sector plays a significant role in the region's economy and contributes to Germany's overall economic performance and competitiveness on the federal level.
